Kylie on her illness

Kylie Minogue has spoken for the first time about her recent illness in an interview with Cat Deeley, to be screened on Sky One on 16 July. The singer tearfully described the moment she found out that she had been diagnosed with breast cancer, saying: “At the moment doctors told me I went silent. Mum and Dad were with me. Then we all fell to pieces.”

On a happier note, she reveals in the interview that she will marry her long-term boyfriend, actor Olivier Martinez this year.
